    US xbox one, UK PSU needed, Microsoft wont sell me one o.0?


    Hey Guys, So i am very often between Canada and the UK, I move back and forth every 4 months or so, so it would be really awesome to just have all the cables in both Canada and the UK and just have to move the box back and forth!

    I rang the xbox UK support asking if I could purchase one, but they said they do not sell them individually anymore, and I would have to send the current one in, wait 10+ days for a replacement and pay the $30 or whatever it is, and then do the same thing when
    I need my canadian one back 4 months later, which is completely pointless and a huge waste of money.

    I was just wondering if there was any other way around this? I messgaed the live support and they actually recommended a good Transformer, which I didnt think they were allowed to do as it can void your console warranty? But other than that, is there anyway
    to get my hands on one?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you guys,

    Jason

    :)

    XBox One PSU 220V

    Hi,

    I live in Jordan and I bought an Xbox One recently. The console was not officially released in Jordan and they were only selling American consoles and the PSU only supports 110V. The guy I bought it from offered me a Chinese PSU for free with my console and it is working fine. My main issue however is the sound it makes as I have the console in my bedroom and I cannot sleep if I have the console's power option set to Instant-On.

    I have been looking all over the place (online and offline US xbox one, UK PSU needed, Microsoft wont sell me one o.0? :p ) to see if I can buy a 220V PSU for my Xbox One and I found a seller on Amazon UK claiming to be selling an original PSU but that will cost me about 77 GBP ~ $120.

    Another option I found is that I can use an X360 PSU to power the Xbox One but I am kinda skeptical about this solution.

    So my question is, how can I power my Xbox One silently. I need to run the console at night when I am sleeping to download games and stuff but I cannot do it because of the sound the PSU is making. Why isn't MS selling the PSU on their store?

    Would the 360 PSU work? Or can I use a power converter and use the original PSU that came with my XBox?

  3. Xbox One Console - Region Free?

    Of Course US xbox one, UK PSU needed, Microsoft wont sell me one o.0? :) I can't find the PSU on their UK store, and Xbox Support US told me they dont sell them direct (Both US and UK) but I'm sure I can find one somewhere.

    Thanks for confirming the region free question!

    Hi,

    I dont find any PSU for selling on any Microsoft Store... so seem its seem the psu is not sold alone.. yet..

    You can find some on ebay or amazon..

    But beware ... if you buy one that is defective or which is a clone, you might break your console. And in this case I seriously doubt that the warranty will cover it because its not the original psu you got with your console ...

    Xbox One Power Issue

    What is the voltage rating on the PSU, if its 100 - 110v then you have probably blew the PSU, thats why it will be blowing your mains house fuse. A plug adapter is not the only thing you would need for a PSU with those voltage ratings, you would also have
    needed a step down transformer to convert 240v UK to 110v US.

    Importing from US to UK

    You will also need a new PSU(UK 240v), or if you intend to use the US PSU a step down transformer to convert the UK 240v to US 120v (if that is the rating of the US PSU).
